Simulation‐based optimization has become an important design tool in microwave engineering. However, using electromagnetic (EM) solvers in the design process is a challenging task, primarily due to a high‐computational cost of an accurate EM simulation. In this article, we present a review of EM‐based design optimization techniques exploiting response‐corrected physically based low‐fidelity models. The surrogate models created through such a correction can be used to yield a reasonable approximation of the optimal design of the computationally expensive structure under consideration (high‐fidelity model). Several approaches using this idea are reviewed including output space mapping, manifold mapping, adaptive response correction, and shape‐preserving response prediction. A common feature of these methods is that they are easy to implement and computationally efficient. Application examples are provided. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J RF and Microwave CAE, 2012.
